I’ll admit, I was beyond excited when I saw there was finally an app for one of my all time favorite websites. The day had finally arrived when I could browse Ranker via an app and I was being ecstatic. So why 3 stars instead of 5? Two reasons. 1) I went through and very carefully selected my interests but every time I open the app, none of my interests are on the home page. It’s always tv/movie related content, none of which I follow. If my custom content would pop up (instead of me having to go digging for it). 2) When I’m going through a list, I inevitably get a blank screen at some point. I have to go back a page, then guessed again to finish reading the list I was just on. This happens every single time I view a list, and usually when I’m halfway to three quarters of the way through the list I’m reading. When I go back, then forward again, it never puts me back to the spot I was reading, rather it puts me back to the earlier items u was reading. Super frustrating. If these two things were fixed, this app would be perfection. Until then, 3 stars.
I’ve been waiting for them to create an app for this page and I’m so excited it’s finally happened. I absolutely love this webpage, it’s my favorite. I go through it every day and I always learn something new. I found it by accident one day and here I am still looking through it. Highly recommend going to this webpage/downloading this app. I love it! Update; I really wish there was a dark mode on this. I love to browse this stuff at night and my god it's bright. But still love the app.
As usual, an app asking us to write a review after 5-10 minutes of exploring said app. Anyway, i hear about “Ranker” lists all the time. What I have not seen on this app (yet, might be but 5-10 minutes isn’t quite long enough to give a fair review on...well...anything) I thought I would be able to debate why a certain topic on a list should be in a different position. Example might be top Comedians of all time. I would love to be able to debate why Brian Reagan is so far down on that list of 250 comedians and even more of a let down I can’t debate or ask why Dane Cook isn’t even on the list? Might not be top 50 or even 100 but if Christopher Titus is on this list, Yea, Dane Cook should absolutely be on a list that contains 250 comedians. Heck Seth Meyers as funny as his show is, he has done ONE stand up special and he made the list. Gotta let your subscribers have a location within the app to debate these things along with any topic Ranker has on here!
Ranker goes far beyond Top 10 lists with deep rankings about everything, voted on by everyone. It's the largest destination for crowdsourced rankings...
